Modern business environment has put small and medium-sized businesses within certain narrow limits when business projects must provide a quick payoff. And laser tag business is the one that best meets the criterion.

It takes little investment to get a fully functional business project with good prospects for development and high chances of “survival” under any economic situation in your country. Let us have a closer look at the benefits of laser tag business. We tried to highlight the key aspects most crucial for any startup.

1.Quick return on investments

One of the key limitations which small business faces on the initial stage is limited financing. Naturally, if you projects generated millions in turnover, you would hardly be reading this page as such amounts of available funding call for implementation of bigger projects, while owners of middle-sized businesses have to get along with much more mediocre budgets. With only several hundred euros available, it is not possible for you to open a car service station or a shop, while the amount is quite enough to laser tag arena start up.

You will have no need for any additional investment, unless your ambition is to set up a permanent arena with a play grounds, recreation area and other accompanying services.

With a right approach and hard working to promote the arena, the amount invested will pay back as early as in a year. In any case, this was the equipment payback period for most of our customers. And of course, it will take much time for promotion and advertisement. But there hardly exists any type of investment with quick payoff and no need to invest time. Furthermore, there is always an option to hire an administrator to run the arena for you, offering him or her percentage from arena revenues. Naturally, this will somewhat extend payback period, but in return you will have all your time otherwise spent on running the arena, which could be a good tradeoff in case you have other projects calling your immediate attention.

2. Net profit and no expendables

Laser tag looks more appealing when compared to similar services in terms of absence of any expendables as, for example, with paintball, where the owner have to allocate a part of the proceeds for procurement of balls, filling the air tanks, spare repair kits and plenty of other current expenses. Laser tag involves no such expenses at all

In fact, the only operating expenditures are those associated with transport costs, while the equipment required to host a game could be brought to the venue even in a small car. Hence, all money received can be treated as “profit”. If you wish to develop and expand your business, you will have to put aside a certain amount for advertising and additional equipment, however, your income in this case will also grow proportionally.

3.Safety of players and staff

Safety is a very important aspect of the game process as it is the host that will be responsible for any injuries received by players. This is especially true for kids. And if in paintball there are plenty of potentially dangerous objects (strike elements, i.e. balls, high pressure units, risk of falls due to limited view blocked by the mask), laser tag has none of them. Of course, sometimes people can just fall and break their legs, however, this is a thing that can happen to them in everyday life, say, while jogging or on their way to work, that is the chances of such an accident are very small, and there is nothing in laser tag that adds to the risk. Therefore, all you have to do during the game is just watch the players to prevent any potentially dangerous actions on their part, and that is it.

4. Independence and mobility

You may host laser tag games virtually in any place. You do not need the protective net as in paintball nor other protective means and measures. All you need is to be informed by the client as for the place and time of the game.

This offers you quite much space for events planning and for partner programs opportunities. You can make arrangements with any recreation facility or any other organization on hosting games on their terms and in their facilities. Depending on terms of such arrangements, you will have to pay them a fee, however, more often than not it will be an adequate price to pay for additional flow of customers.

5. Wide age range

Laser tag imposes actually no age limitations. It can be played by both adults and kids. Kids can try playing this game as soon as they are able to carry the tagger. It is a quite important fact since it significantly expands the age range of your clientele. In addition, another important benefit of laser tag is that more women are willing to play it since this game completely eliminates pain associated with playing paintball. Definitely, this is an advantage to be used when advertising your arena.>

6. Vast hosting options

As already discussed, the mobility offered by laser tag makes it possible to host games virtually in any place. Therefore, it will be easy for you to offer our service as an addition to extend the range of services offered by other organizations. In addition, you may hold promo events offering 10 minutes of free play to anyone right in the city center. With no costs required and safety of the service, this will be an excellent move to promote your arena. ou may also vary game scenarios, arrange a shooting range or develop an original service package to get your customers. With no current expenses and no need to worry about safety issues, you will have a versatile set of tools to host your games.

7. Laser tag business prospects

Therefore, the earlier you enter the market the more audience there is for you to cover.

Once laser tag arenas in your city will too many, the trend will reverse, and owners will face dumping and another problems due to increased competition. So, it is better to start now, when the trend for the service is up, and the number of existing arenas is less than that needed to meet the demand for the service.

8. Laser tag as additional service
